Jeff,
$ ls -l `which procmail`
might raise the cluon flux a tad.
Specifically, procmail has the suid bits set. Even root isn't allowed
to connect to an X server (at least, in the default Deb setup). I'm
guessing that maybe RedHats' procmail switched uid to the user the mail
is addressed to, but Debians' doesn't.
